The labor was very different this time seeing that I didn't even know I WAS in labor. Almost didn't even go into the hospital. My mom had to talk me into it and I felt like the biggest idiot going in and saying "Well I'm not contracting but I need to be checked!" Everyone looked at me like "Right....". Turns out I was contracting every 5 minutes just didn't feel them or felt very few of them and my labor ended up stopping once I dilated to 7. The doctor of course did not want to send me home at that point seeing that I probably would have had him at home or on the way to the hospital! He started me on pitocin which didn't really work so he eventually just broke my water and he was born an hour and 2 pushes later. He is so sweet and has a big brother who is pretty fond of him. Oliver started saying "brother" and "Carter" as soon as we brought him home and even asks for him when he wakes up in the morning. We are so blessed and I love being the mommy of two little boys. They are precious!
Life is much busier and I feel like I'm non stop 24/7 seeing that at night I'm up every 2 hours feeding and changing a baby. But I love it and am so grateful to have been blessed with two healthy beautiful babies and an amazing husband who takes care of all of us. He's a great daddy and works really hard for our family. We love being a family of four!
